Here’s the best part: YOU can call in and ask questions! I know that many of you will be in offices, but maybe you can take a 10-minute break? I’d love to hear your voices!

The number to call in LIVE is: 877-474-3302.

After chatting briefly with Bill on the phone, it’s obvious that we have a lot in common. Bill was happily married, with two wonderful kids, and a growing business. But in 2003, he discovered that his wife was drinking excessively.

Soon, they were divorced, and she passed away two years ago. Bill has been raising his kids solo since.

So, make my day and call in with a little question… and if you can’t, please leave a question here!

Ah, c’mon now, Bill McLeod, you knew that I was trained as a newspaper reporter… I’m just as curious to know how single dads “do it.” I learned a lot from you on the show. Thanks so much for having me!

I will post a link to the podcast for everyone this week, when I get it!

In short, we talked about how to balance it all: raising your kids as a solo parent and trying to date, too. It was great to hear Bill encourage single parents to have adult friends, however you might define that.

We also talked a lot about the importance of being honest with your kids when you’re dating — and the mistakes we’ve made when trying to juggle it all.
